Part 2 of my research
Bandai DVDs
Each disc has about 2 minutes of unskipable credit screens and a trailer for The Third: the girl with the blue eye before you can even select a menu option…
I must point out that I significantly prefer the menu screens of the Bandai DVDs to the Funi DVDs.

Conclusion to research part 1
Aside from the trailers, the Funi DVDs include all of the special features that were on the Bandai DVDs, plus a neat reference guide (I guess it would look better on a larger screen…)

I’ve been satisfied with my Bandai Lucky Star DVD’s, like you I’ve got the full Collection + OVA.

Thanks @MaouSadao
So since they ditched the DVD’s for the Essentials release .
The Essentials release only has :
OVA “JK”
Lucky Racer: Checker Flag in Akihabara & Lucky Racer Highlight
Radio Kansai’s Public Recording of “New Lucky Channel”
On-Screen Text Reference Guide
Trailers
I don’t own the essentials release ,but that is what is being reported and with Funimation’s reusing the same disc I’m pretty sure it’s a fact .
I picked the series up from Bandai as it was released . I think I only picked up the first LE though as the rest of them did not really appeal to me as I was trying to save space by that point .

That’s fairy confusing. They included new special features on the Blu-ray set, but couldn’t put the old ones (or at least some of them?)
@mgosdin as well. I actually have all 5 of the Limited edition sets of Lucky Star still sealed. The only one I never got was a single copy of disc 6 due to the aforementioned rarity and cost. True story, the complete collection DVD set was only $75, about half of the cost of a new Disc 6…

Not surprising that Funimation had trouble getting blu-ray rights for all the special features. Probably something along the lines of, “We have Bandai’s rights from the license rescue, but the Production Committee won’t talk to us about anything more.”
I picked up the complete Lucky Star collection, at a now defunct con that my oldest boy wanted to go to with his College Anime Group, for $40.00, that was 6 years ago I think. Unopened it was on a table full of Bandai stuff, got all of Haruhi Suzumiya off that same table.

You’re probably right about that, but it doesn’t explain the Lucky Racer and Live action Lucky Channel features on the Blu-ray 
Mentioning Haruhi, I STILL haven’t watched it yet

Probably a different Production Committee vs the other features.

I think there is other Kadokawa shows that had licensing restrictions that effected format content to . So makes sense it might have been part of the licensing agreement . So this ultimately unfortunately looks like it might be just a side effect of the DVD’s being ditched . Now I’m going to have to start doing research just in case any other sets are like that with some extras only on the DVD . I was looking at Haruhi to see if any oddness popped up with it for future classics/essentials reference,but other then the ways it was released and The Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya & Nyoro~n Churuya-san on Blu-ray as an exclusive on the collectors set not seeing anything .

Just putting this APB for everyone here.
There’s a complete set of the Bandai Lucky Star Limited Edition Sets on eBay right now for $100 plus shipping.
Lucky Star Limited Edition Complete Set
They all have been opened, except volume 6, but look as new!
(Posting this cause the only other volume 6 currently available is $80, and the Complete Voulme 4 LE is about as rare as Nyaruko-san Season 2)

If I had the extra money I’d probably do it and sell my singles with the first LE . Looking like other then what I have budgeted out for the next two months if anything pops up I’ll have to pass . So I have to be good .

I was going through my things, and thought to post these:
These aren’t from my sealed sets BTW.
The CD’s were in my Impala (Cali) until it was totaled back in February, and my Saab (Grea) doesn’t have a functioning radio (have to remove the seat to fix it (-_-) )
All three shirts have been worn at least once 
Volume 4 LE is DVD and CD only. (That outer box and summer uniform shirt are unicorns…)
I don’t have an open copy of volume 5 LE…
Do not ask me where that cornet screen wipe went…

Included things got a bit strange back in the day .
